"I wanna see where we're gonna live!" Linda shouts before she's given an option.
"Really now?" Taylor grins, showing off sharp pointy reptilian teeth.
"Oh yeah. They said 'enclosed environment' or something, right?"
"Yes, I think they did. It's really nice. C'mon, I'll show ya." He walks her over to an elevator and she links her arm into his as they step inside.

A few minutes later, they're in their dome, which is several stories high, with a large tropical tree riding up in the middle with a few wooden cabins situated amongst the branches.
"Whaddaya think?" Taylor asks.
"It's... different..." It's... different. Taylor felt disappointment wash over him. He and Donovan had worked so hard on this place...
"I think I might like it... never lived 'Swiss Family Robinson' before..." She runs her hand along the bark of the tree, and then begins to scamper up it. "Betcha can't catch me!" She calls out from the cover of the tree. She watches her scales turn brown, the shade of the tree bark. 'Cool,' she thinks, 'I'm a chameleon.'
"Found ya," she hears from above her as a clawed finger taps on her shoulder.
"Hey - what the - wha?" She does a double take, almost falling off of her perch. "I was watching you the whole-"
"No you weren't." He smirks.
"But - how..."
"You've got a bit to learn about being an anole, I think."
